FinOps for startups
For a startup, FinOps can be as simple as a monthly bill review, tags on every resource, a budget alert, and one person accountable for cloud spend.
- Tag resources by environment and owner.
- Set a budget alert at your expected spend.
- Review the bill monthly and act on the top items.
- Delete non-production resources you no longer use.
Try it on your own bill
CloudCostAI reads a billing export file (AWS Cost and Usage Report, GCP billing export or Azure usage CSV) and returns findings with fix steps. It needs no access to your cloud account. Free: one report a month. Pro $29/month, Team $99/month, or a one-time audit for $179 (current plans, checked 2026-10-27).
Findings are estimates from billing lines, not utilisation metrics. Check each one against usage and service needs before changing anything.
